Its unlikely to be a realized loss as of yet, even with futures, you may be looking at 90 day due (or other term) futures and he would likely hold a
variety of termed derivatives expiring on a variety of dates.

Its only realized if he exits his position (in this case buying at market to cover the short) or if the term expires. Im guessing Soros is probably
above margin calls with the clearing house.

I'd say Soros is trying to replicate the Rothschild's scam where they bought up stocks when they tanked, so Soros would be quite happy to see America
drop like a hammer, so then he can buy up the stocks he wants and become the new Rothschild.

Can i wish him bankruptcy lol, i think i just did.

I'm a firm believer in capitalism, to the extent it does not cross into amorality. However, I also believe that most of the top tier individuals used
other-than-capitalist means to achieve their wealth. Having billions or trillions in wealth, there is no logical explanation other than extralegal
means. Many large corporations in America used lobbying to obtain corporate protectionism/favoritism, this is indicative of fascism; those who
achieved their wealth through this method should be stripped of their assets. I am willing to compromise by taking those fascist earnings, and
distributing that wealth equally.

Also, once someone uses vast wealth to control others, or stop others from succeeding, or to foment
wars, etc, it's a form of corruption and inhibits real markets.
